Ying Hu; Gwo-Jen Hwang – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
This study explored the effects of a self-adapted mobile concept mapping-based problem-posing (CMPP) approach applied in a virtual museum context. To investigate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, a quasi-experimental design was applied to compare the critical thinking tendency, meta-cognition tendency, problem-solving tendency,…

Kuan-Fu Chen; Gwo-Jen Hwang; Mei-Rong Alice Chen – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Many studies have incorporated concept maps into digital games to enable learners to make connections between subject concepts in the game. However, most learners do not associate spontaneously with the thematic concepts in the game but need to be facilitated by effective scaffolding mechanisms to reconceptualize the learning process and content.…

Ying Hu; Gwo-Jen Hwang – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
In the contemporary society, it is important to cultivate students' visual literacy. However, there has been a lack of sufficient training for students to improve their visual literacy in the classroom. A problem-posing approach (Visual Thinking Strategy, VTS, a learning strategy with question sequences to facilitate critical inquiry) has been…

Kuan-Fu Chen; Gwo-Jen Hwang; Mei-Rong Alice Chen – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2024
Laboratory courses can help students learn in a meaningful way. In the past, students encountered difficulties in chemistry laboratory courses due to limited access to equipment and space for practicing experimental operations. In recent years, virtual laboratories have allowed students to repeatedly practice in order to achieve their experimental…
